Heroes not of virtue, but of circumstance. Authur Lucas Aubrey Paynter tells a wondrous tale of Killers, Traitors, &amp; Runaways. I'm surprised to see very few reviews. I really like this writer as I think his idea for the heroes is very unique and his style is great. The plot moves along pretty quickly and while at times this does feel a bit clunky, it doesn't take long for you to immerse yourself in the world. Despite the supernatural aspect of the story, the author makes it natural to readers thanks to the authenticity of all the characters. The kind of characters you would love to hang out with. Loved it.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Killers-Traitors-Runaways-Outcasts-Worlds-ebook/dp/B07612FH9F/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=1547545483&amp;sr=1-1" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="475" data-original-width="298" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-19Q-DUqjw3k/XD2reLats-I/AAAAAAAAp5o/3_nNFFHMDnYKw3kNdYh_jlthOpC-VxIrQCLcBGAs/s320/KTR.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Killers-Traitors-Runaways-Outcasts-Worlds-ebook/dp/B07612FH9F/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=1547545483&amp;sr=1-1" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="125" data-original-width="300" height="83" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5fxegy9wpaA/XD2r6E3RmMI/AAAAAAAAp5w/BNJKVzitunASnDvq_JhUKK5mqxnX_IdpwCLcBGAs/s200/amazon-button-buy.png" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919626317833017060.post-44200147705349649402019-01-01T08:00:00.000-08:002019-01-04T01:25:18.902-08:00.<div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Every month, we share our book recommendations with you.

Hidden agendas were brought to light in this page turning, quick paced novel. The flow of the book was natural and not forced, and very well written. For me, the most interesting figure is Chris. He's shown as a man of determination and vision, the capacity for deep friendship, with a need for love.

I enjoyed the characters, especially Ed and Harry. Could any of them find their way in a world of power struggles? I couldn’t stop turning pages wondering what was next for them. Though there was a trial and tribulation in the book it was obvious the characters cared enough about each other to overcome them. The authors brought so many insights.

There is so much here; suspense, mystery, love, heroism and most of all a historical insight to a very dark time in our history! We get to see the day-to-day living in a terrible place during the war at that time. The author who did an excellent job with this read. It made me want to explore history more and gave me a new perspective on WW2.

After finishing this book, I immediately went to find the first book in the series. My only complaint is that is was too short but it had everything a person reading this can ask.

I couldn't put it down if I tried! The book was well written, full of excitement, suspense, hatred and love. She captures every feeling imaginable in this book. One of the standouts for me is the detail the Rashell has put into the characters. She is on her way to becoming a notable author.

This treasure of a book invites the reader into understanding of the view of men that if embraced would radically alter how victims address this heartache. This is a must-read book. If you or some one you know are or may be in an abusive relationship or even just getting out of one this book is for you. This book has left an indelible mark on myself and my partner. Never again will I assume men don't suffer domestic abuse.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LXRDQU9/ref=x_gr_w_bb?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=x_gr_w_bb-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B01LXRDQU9&amp;SubscriptionId=1MGPYB6YW3HWK55XCGG2" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="475" data-original-width="297" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MFf9Od3wSB8/WbfVVAaosFI/AAAAAAAAf-U/qI-Zwe3hhgIEjP73UJ3tjX-IyzS0e3CbgCLcBGAs/s400/truth-b.jpg" width="250" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LXRDQU9/ref=x_gr_w_bb?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=x_gr_w_bb-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B01LXRDQU9&amp;SubscriptionId=1MGPYB6YW3HWK55XCGG2" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="132" data-original-width="355" height="118" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PnGiNfm4U6E/WbfVfQzvSRI/AAAAAAAAf-Y/Sny7gTQrALo4u36IOikl2rjYRyQM1zpuwCLcBGAs/s320/Amazon-preorder.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919626317833017060.post-30848312198362552742017-08-15T05:21:00.001-07:002017-08-15T05:21:54.365-07:00'Chinese Education in Singapore'<div style="text-align: justify;">Chinese Education in Singapore: An Untold Story of Conflict and Change, is an unbiased view of Singapore's history.

I have to say that this book was a pleasant surprise! Set in the fantasy city of Islar is a fresh story-line, believable characters, and a couple of nice twists in the mix. One thing that impressed me was the higher level of language that was used in this book. The authors characters are compelling, the settings have both brutality and honesty and the plot has unexpected turns. This promises to be an interesting series - and I need answers, but I'll have to wait for the release of book two to get them.

Detective Vinnie Palmer and TV reporter Christine Jones are on the trail of an escaped psychopath as he has leads them from one murder scene to another. As the pieces fit together and the frustrating chase to uncover the killer makes the conclusion very dramatic. The story line is incredibly believable, well developed, and riveting.

John Walsh is one of those. With Irish wit and worldly knowledge, John has put together a wonderfully warm and humourous collection of reflective poems.

Ghost Sickness is the fifth novel in the Mae Martin mystery series. Mae and Jamie are wonderful characters. I like how the author can connect characters to each other, and ropes you in as if you are part of the story. The author did her research on Indian reservations and was very accurate in her descriptions. This book was suspenseful, humorous, and steady reading. I have also read and enjoyed the other books in the series as the author can offer readers a form of escapism that typical detective stories can't.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Sickness-Martin-Mysteries-Book-ebook/dp/B01JVKDISU/ref=pd_rhf_dp_p_img_7?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;refRID=RNYSKRZCXEMWH1XVTXKP"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-bRixNgk_jN0/WQh8-tISkMI/AAAAAAAAdm4/tzsfoU7-Mi8xyuNm1ZCG9RGCn8oEON01wCLcB/s400/gs.jpg" width="258" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Sickness-Martin-Mysteries-Book-ebook/dp/B01JVKDISU/ref=pd_rhf_dp_p_img_7?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;refRID=RNYSKRZCXEMWH1XVTXKP"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9ZFBSp5JAo4/WQh9PzuoICI/AAAAAAAAdnA/0fOu5F2eYcczi5YRNw2CkjYsNurufqwWACLcB/s1600/amazon-button-buy.png" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919626317833017060.post-1926533424338332422017-02-21T09:21:00.000-08:002017-02-21T09:21:01.763-08:00'Borrowed Wings'<div style="text-align: justify;">The sequel to the award winning 'Skylark', Borrowed Wings continues where Skylark left off. Billie must find her way forward and Jack must find his way back. But this time the secondary characters from the first book get into the spotlight much more, and that is a good thing. The great thing is this is a book that pretty much everyone can (and will) enjoy. It is funny, tender, thoughtful and thought-provoking - as the layered meanings run deep in this book. This isn't Fargo. It is something more tender and beautiful.

'The Temptation of Dragons' grabbed me quickly and kept me involved throughout. From talking dragons and unicorns, to a religious undertone, it may seem over complicated at times but the author did a masterful job of developing each character and that allowed me to keep track of who was who. The synopsis provided on the back cover fills in many of the spaces without destroying the mystery of the story. At times funny, this female version of Dr. Who meets Harry Potter is a great fantasy read to start your new year.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Temptation-Dragons-Penny-White-Book-ebook/dp/B01DOGQ3HU/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_vCs8Stt-pc/WGuY44efJVI/AAAAAAAAbWU/xxD6NdhRR5YmpylhQZa1mkW6Y9c3t4HlgCLcB/s400/temp..jpg" width="265" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Temptation-Dragons-Penny-White-Book-ebook/dp/B01DOGQ3HU/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8"><img border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-g_CTfFzWGro/WGuY67au7QI/AAAAAAAAbWY/i6WJtnsFIdcJeXppvQf27EZI73QTyTNuACLcB/s1600/Amazon-Buy-Button.png" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919626317833017060.post-37095716507260167572016-12-11T08:38:00.001-08:002016-12-11T08:38:02.615-08:00'LandQuaker'<div style="text-align: justify;">Author Dean Wilson is writing books I’ve always wanted to read - steampunk with actual emotions and true character development. The forth book in the Great Iron War series, Landquaker is by far the best.

A mysterious plot surrounding Ava, who works in the Mystic Investigative Division. But when the Division turns on her, she goes on the run. Addictive is one word that I'd use to describe this novel. I wish I could say more but given that there is a lot that can’t be said because of spoilers, I would say its a story rich in detail, full of the sights, sounds, and smells that make you feel as though you're actually there. One of those books that was just a joy to lose myself in. Some may hate cliffhangers but this actually worked for this book.

A psychological thriller full of rich characters, plot twists and a variety of well written conflicts. Author Lorelei Logsdon is a strikingly powerful storyteller, that gets you asking - Who to trust? Who to believe? &amp; What the hell just happened? So needless to say, I recommend this "uncomfortable" journey :)</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Comorbid-Gripping-Psychological-Lorelei-Logsdon-ebook/dp/B01FWH54FG/ref=pd_rhf_dp_p_img_8?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;refRID=9FV7CTKHWX6N6H34X8ZS"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jNFi5-QRI0Q/WCste8AsGPI/AAAAAAAAZJs/4q0_IkRXkJg7JwCSCenkAafDN0aHgAIPQCLcB/s400/com.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Comorbid-Gripping-Psychological-Lorelei-Logsdon-ebook/dp/B01FWH54FG/ref=pd_rhf_dp_p_img_8?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;refRID=9FV7CTKHWX6N6H34X8ZS"><img border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rWiwaEW7_Zw/WCstkasemVI/AAAAAAAAZJw/kzA5zwyQOLgyCV43--8IJBZ_hbFuuD7xwCLcB/s1600/Available-on-Amazon.png" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919626317833017060.post-52938683365212671712016-10-11T07:44:00.002-07:002016-10-11T07:44:46.755-07:00'Keeper of the Key'<div style="text-align: justify;">Another killer release form author Renee Spyrou. 'Keeper of the Key' is #2 in the Seraphympire Series and like in the first book, the main character Makayla takes us on a journey - Not just adventure, but also emotionally. She must find Alexander before a deadly virus wipes out humanity, but Alexander isn't all that he seems. This second book adds enough new characters to deepen the enjoyment while sticking with the central forward moving plot. Thanks to Renee, who sent the book to me as its a perfect book to read by firelight on these cold Autumn evenings. A very enjoyable story and I am so glad that I was able to share my view.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Seraphympire-Keeper-Gateway-Guardians-Book-ebook/dp/B01EL4VBLC/ref=sr_1_2?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1476196992&amp;sr=1-2"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ewITiDBJGoE/V_z6X5GkWJI/AAAAAAAAX4I/9AyGYh5bK6YonVro8qvQ0uBUkCqZWbG5QCLcB/s400/KEEPER.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Seraphympire-Keeper-Gateway-Guardians-Book-ebook/dp/B01EL4VBLC/ref=sr_1_2?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1476196992&amp;sr=1-2"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DorXPiYV3nI/V_z6YznLeXI/AAAAAAAAX4M/WM3KSYylYA8bkw8D8-WlmKCdPu5gaSG6gCLcB/s1600/Amazon-Buy-Button.png" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919626317833017060.post-80014016603559281862016-10-05T09:00:00.001-07:002016-10-05T09:00:32.403-07:00'Finding the Raven'<div style="text-align: justify;">Finding the Raven by Patty Dickson Pieczka is a gripping thriller that kept me sitting on the edge of my bed guessing what would happen next. I would say this novel is probably classified as an historical-magic-murder-mystery !! :) This fascinating thrill ride was set in 1900's America and I think the dynamics and the evolving relationship between Julia and Rose was one of the most satisfying parts of the book. Definitely recommended if you like mysteries and strong women characters with a lot of heart. 5/5 (My thanks to Patty for sending me a review copy.)</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Finding-Raven-Patty-Dickson-Pieczka-ebook/dp/B01E11ILY0/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4BjE5WxmwS8/V_UjNw2KkKI/AAAAAAAAXlU/B0anYWTKYnAeeykU36fwAPSYCqmbAcdwQCLcB/s400/FINDING-R.jpg" width="271" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Finding-Raven-Patty-Dickson-Pieczka-ebook/dp/B01E11ILY0/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yYGylRxa-Hc/V_UjOtCGW9I/AAAAAAAAXlY/vwnjfZLTBEkgoyY-ByP8T_Y-ab6bJCLxwCLcB/s1600/Available-on-Amazon.png" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919626317833017060.post-31536102752123665272016-10-05T08:32:00.001-07:002016-10-05T08:32:34.883-07:00'The Cogs of Alusura'<div style="text-align: justify;">This steam punk adventure "The Cogs of Alusura" &nbsp;by Sidney Lotto, tells the take of when a princess becomes Queen after the murder of her parents, and then she and her husband set out to find the killers. The problem I had with this book is the spelling and grammar. The reason why spelling and grammar are so important is because they portray a book in a manner that focuses the reader on the plot and the enjoyment of the story. Authors would want to display care and attention to detail by using correct spelling and proper grammar. These are all valuable traits that readers look for in a good book. That being said, the story was good and I'd expect better in the future from this author. I received this book as part of a book club in exchange for my unbiased, honest review.&nbsp;3/5</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Cogs-Alusura-Terra-Finite-Book-ebook/dp/B018GFOLN2/ref=sr_1_2?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1475680974&amp;sr=1-2"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-aRYaR8MKi7I/V_UaupU4dWI/AAAAAAAAXkM/e3Mf2ezHIQwX5_liwGJwDRRXN4C7hin2ACEw/s400/cogs.jpg" width="282" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Cogs-Alusura-Terra-Finite-Book-ebook/dp/B018GFOLN2/ref=sr_1_2?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1475680974&amp;sr=1-2"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OVLa7OMbX7M/V_UawVnmv8I/AAAAAAAAXkQ/ofHjBqzTHbgy8z0hOcxlYdxFe6TIxv3mgCLcB/s1600/Available-on-Amazon.png" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919626317833017060.post-63587906233659733412016-10-02T07:03:00.000-07:002016-10-03T09:54:28.834-07:00'Granite Grit'<div style="text-align: justify;">Granite Grit by Lee Cooper is a superb story, that is both fast and engaging. The plot was powerful and utterly gripping; filled with highs and lows, laughter and tears. The story of a boxer named Joe who falls into the seedie world of underground bare knuckle fighting. Not being familiar with this topic, reading this book allowed me an amazing insight to the world of boxing. Along the way we are introduced to a lot of characters but not once did I get confused whilst reading as they all connect well with one another. So thank you Lee for this fabulous book which gave me many hours of reading pleasure.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Granite-Grit-Fightings-blood-Book-ebook/dp/B018CX3B52/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sRm_1gvQFpw/V-fY4l7ROSI/AAAAAAAAXU0/XoFDq2lN9fU1GHk_DXi7pJ4EjQFNSqoFQCLcB/s400/gg.jpg" width="257" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Granite-Grit-Fightings-blood-Book-ebook/dp/B018CX3B52/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8"><img border="0" height="67" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wRZbv832zEs/V-uwDrGkkWI/AAAAAAAAXYU/2YV9VeEO2AEct6Wsu9HJwwg2P_jYNnMcACLcB/s200/Available-on-Amazon.png" width="200" /></a></div><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919626317833017060.post-43864638957418009722016-09-13T04:25:00.000-07:002016-09-13T04:25:59.369-07:00'Children of Swan'<div style="text-align: justify;">Once I started reading Children of Swan by Coral Walker, I didn't really know what to expect. It follows the story of Jack and Brianna who wake up one morning to find their parents have disappeared to a distant planet. It was an interesting read and quite entertaining. Although aimed at YA readers, there is some violence and desperation mixed in. However, sometimes the story gets bogged down with clichés. That been said this book is exciting and has a great collection of characters. I would definitely recommend it to other sci-fi fans! So am I going to continue reading this series? Yes! Especially after the way this one ended!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BLL9M8M/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_x_vh-1xbY5HT3XQ"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CoQkmrz6a5o/V9fhsPjGyXI/AAAAAAAAXF8/Lety0RQJn044kWSdH5nF3yNJiE4Po1oNQCLcB/s400/c-o-s1.jpg" width="250" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BLL9M8M/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_x_vh-1xbY5HT3XQ"><img border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-m25rqM2lqVI/V9fhlQK0USI/AAAAAAAAXF4/zSyrw_SAf3IVqLAz4IauKYj5UOmQxvuFACLcB/s1600/amazon-button-buy.png" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>Drunken Druidhttps://plus.google.com/101773523879244470014noreply@blogger.com0
